programming/coding and polynomials

$begingroup$


I would like to know your opinion about which is the best code
to work with mathematical operations/structures.



I am doing my thesis on symmetric polynomials and I would like
to include a computational part. Now I am trying to compute
Schur functions, but C is not the best code to do so. What do you
think?



When I talk about programming, I mean to do like a console application where you can ask someone to put an input and things like that.

Do you have access to MAGMA? There seem to be a number of functions related to what you have in mind here at https://magma.maths.usyd.edu.au/magma/handbook/text/1762.



Of course, MAGMA comes at a cost, though your institution may have paid the license. SAGE math is free, has a similar amount of functionality, and seems also to have functions of this kind built in: http://doc.sagemath.org/html/en/reference/combinat/sage/combinat/sf/schur.html



The best way to run MAGMA is via a Jupyter notebook, while SAGE works best via https://cocalc.com/



Good luck!

    Up to my understanding, there is a deal with Simons foundation which will cover the cost of using MAGMA for all US non-profit, non-governmental scientific research and educational institutions. For those lucky students in US, it is very likely they already have free access to MAGMA.

    It's not something I use at all, but I know some people (particularly those whose research is of the more Applied kind) use it regularly. For what you have in mind, I doubt Matlab would be the way to go, but like I say I'm no expert on that.

Probability when a professor distributes a quiz and homework assignment to a class of n students.

Image
0 0 $begingroup$ Need help with this problem. Suppose our lazy professor collects a quiz and a homework assignment from a class of n students one day, then distributes both the quizzes and the homework assignments back to the class in a random fashion for grading. Each student receives one quiz and one homework assignment to grade. (a) What is the probability that every student receives someone else's quiz to grade, and someone else's homework to grade? (b) What is the probability that no student receives both their own quiz and their own homework assignment to grade? In this case, some students may receive their own quiz, and others may receive their own homework assignment. (c) Compute the limiting probability as n approaches infinity in each case. ...
